If you can't make a contribution to the dialog that doesn't involve your anuses, don't put anything here so that I won't have to wade through the poop to read something by some one intelligent.
The bagpipes add a surreal effect on an already hauntingly beautiful tune. Reminds me of when i first discovered this song...gettin' high after school, Fall 1973.....good times, indeed.
I am trying to find a track by this band that was,I think, the b-side to a hit single in the early 70`s. the first few lines are.."I`ve been drinking again, thinking of when you left me, and that weren`t so long ago.... many thanks,
@zenofmusic@zenofmusic The song is called "Drinking Again." It was the B-side to "Love is Blue," one of Beck's first solo singles. The version covered here was first recorded by Dinah Washington, and later by Sinatra.
I read somewhere that the last Yardbirds tour included a fair amount of what appeared on the first Led Zep LP. Truth was a crazy great, great album. This and the Dead version? C'mon, Apples and Oranges.
Bought this vinyl album when it first came out in 1968. Rod Stewart also cut a solo album called 'An Old Raincoat Will never Let You Down' around the same time (late 60s) but can't find a copy in the U.S. Well worth listeningh to, if you can find it.
At least your were on your stoop. I was 8 in '68. Lucky to miss action in any war in my life. This version is a great thing for a Deadhead to hear in the early stages of Deadheadism. Both this and many Dead versions kick ass. Rod the Mod is a great thing happening, too. Thanks for putting this on here.
Reminds me of the Vietnam War, sitting on the front stoop of an early morning waiting to read the names of local boys who had died in the war that day. Indelible memories.
agree with your disagreement. The climaxes on Morning Dew have been some of the all time peak grateful dead moments. 5/2/70, 3/24/86, 9/18/87, 7/31/88. the allmans also do a great version
@abrahamlincoln0900 Not technically, I will agree. Jeff beck is my guy in that arena, but as a band that can transform through music, nobody is in the league of the Grateful Dead. I've seen all these guys since the 60's from Hendrix on down the line, and only Jerry Garcia could play my nervous system. I am not alone in that. It's not for nothing that so many are so nutty about those guys.
@abrahamlincoln0900 Actually Garcia was extremely talented and would have people come over to his place and just jam for hours, He playing all kinds of different insturments. The rest of the Dead well they did do some good stuff
@abrahamlincoln0900: The version by The 31st of February (a group that briefly included Duane and Gregg Allman before its demise) is the finest take on the song I've ever heard. You can hear it on You Tube.
(DangerousBastard) You are CORRECT, sir!...in an interview, Jimmy Page said, when he first heard his friends new band play (Jeff Beck Group) He wanted HIS new band (Zeppelin) to sound JUST LIKE them. I heard that on the "King Biscuit Flour Hour"...If memory serves.
@Benton46 This statement sounds logic too. Don't worry, I won't say Page is a plagiarist or something, but we can clearly hear Jeff Beck Group's influence on Led Zeppelin's first album.
Too bad all the people under forty-something, including me, missed out on times when stuff like this was being made. And missed out on the times when Rod was totally cool.

of course they cared about money, most of these guys were not only in these bands but professional session musicians in the studios around wherever they lived, you've obviously never looked into it and just assume that these were the "glory" days, i'm not diminishing the music at all, i'm just saying don't assume that they didn't care about money, they did this for a living.
yeah, almost all of them were session musicians.. Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix, and many more..! But music was better then.. Rock'n'roll was rock'n'roll, not emo-gothic-black-pop-rock...

@huggablehowie and if I may...the grateful dead does nothing for me. I saw them once at SUNY Buffalo...only because I got a free ticket ( but I had to drive from SUNY Binghamton and pay for the gas and food).
I didn't think ANY body else knew this album. I've run into one other guy who knew it. Maybe being almost 50 has something to do with it! thanks for posting!
I'm 58 and came across it about two years ago: an incredible version done by Jazz is Dead (Jimmy Herring on Guitar) on their LP "Great Sky River". I've been keeping an ear out for other versions ever since then. Check out the JID version. I hope you like it.
I dont think age has anything to do with it tbh, its just having an amazing taste in music. God knows im not old enough for this but he also knows i love it
Loved the video. Thanks for having the patience to shoot it. Always loved the song, and especially loved Truth. I think it is one of the best albums ever made. Anyone know how to send a note to JB?
Back when i was in Nam this song played in our base. That was the day my buddy died. This song brings back aweful memorys. I hate you for posting this.
too bad, you should'nt have listened. Hate is a waste of energy - Aye? The Bird is the word brings back memories of 2/68 listening to the incoming at DaNang Airbase. The movie Full Metal Jacket added to that.
Back in 1971 when I was an aspiring 16 year old drummer in a Detroit garage band, my Latino lead guitarist played this song on his old man's vintage( then brand new) sterophonic entertainment center, which was nothing more than a AM-FM stereo receiver, a color TV and a record player with speakers built into the 2 front panels...this introduced me to guitar of Jeff Beck and vocals of Rod.. a defining moment for me in the world of music appreciation...WOW. WOW. WOW.Thanks for video
Jeff Beck Truth was one of the best produced classy albums ever even today it stands to test of time very classy very sophisticated it flows has incredible warmth and depth tubes baby tubes not just in the amps but tube compressors tube pre-amps for the vocals tubes in the microphones tubes comin out the wazoo...!
u should specify. because popular music really does suck today, but there are some great indie artists out there. dont just generalize like that, at least give bands like the shins and bright eyes and the postal service their due credit, cuz their great bands today, just not popular bands.
The bands you have listed are decent artistically, but when it comes to as musicians, they are rubbish. Even the greatest of the indie bands today have mediocre musical talent.
thats crazy. i dont know what the hell youre talking about, not in the slightest. tell me that conor oberst from bright eyes is not a sensational lyricist, and then tell me that the shins and wolfmother cant write a guitar riff. if u said that, youd be dead wrong.
yes, artistically, meaning that some can write sensational lyrics or make good guitar riffs. a great musician is someone who can not only create, but someone who can also play his instrument vistuistically, that is, differently and better than anyone else he is similar to, and that's only part of it. too much for a youtube comment if you ask me :P
Goatmeal said it perfectly. And wolfmother is a decent band, and do have a decent guitar player, but still doesnt come near what the tip top was back in the day. All good musicians today seem to go towards metals and goth music and such, which i feel is simply an annoying group of music.
within 10 seconds of each wolfmother song i can tell whether they were listening to zep or sabbath before writing the song. they're so unoriginal it hurts.
what! mediocre! read some lyrics, listen to some guitar riffs of the shins. and, if u want a better example of a musically gifted current band, try radiohead. absolutely amazing. listen to the album OK computer, then say that no one today has amazing musical talent
yeah but other than radiohead there isnt a lot of talent out there these days, i would recomend ok compuetr as well, arguably the greatest record of all time
with all due respect have you ever listened to the gods, led zep, deep purple, cream etc etc these legends would make you want to cry compared to the endless rotational garbage produced to please the ignorant masses currently....
Very good cover of the song-I like the visuals since the song is about nuclear war. If you want to hear the ABSOLUTE BEST cover of the song, check out the one by the Damnation of Adam Blessing. It is on their CD,"The Damnation of Adam Blessing" and is outstanding. They were a group from Cleveland, Ohio that played and recorded in the late 60's to early 70's.d Their rendition of "Morning Dew" is intense,with Adam Blessing delivering some powerful vocals.
Thanks for responding. Let me know if you're able to find it. Damnation should have made it big but didn't due to management conflicts. They have quite a following in Cleveland and played here recently. It was like being in a time warp-they were great!
this was onjeff beck....TRUTH....with R.S.'s vocals listed as rod stewart-vocals extrodinaire...lol.....

too bad, you should'nt have listened. Hate is a waste of energy - Aye? The Bird is the word brings back memories of 2/68 listening to the incoming at DaNang Airbase. The movie Full Metal Jacket added to that.

Rod's amzing singing, Beck's guitar work, Ron Wood's bassline - it doesn't get better than this.

Back in 1971 when I was an aspiring 16 year old drummer in a Detroit garage band, my Latino lead guitarist played this song on his old man's vintage( then brand new) sterophonic entertainment center, which was nothing more than a AM-FM stereo receiver, a color TV and a record player with speakers built into the 2 front panels...this introduced me to guitar of Jeff Beck and vocals of Rod.. a defining moment for me in the world of music appreciation...WOW. WOW. WOW.Thanks for video

""would have been bigger than Zeppelin if they(beck-stewert) stuck it out...the Truth""
Rubbish. The whole reason why they finished was because Zeppelin came along.......and they KNEW Zeppelin were bigger and better than them.
Zeppelin killed their career stone dead, mate.

Not only that...Led Zeppelin is such a bad ass name, compared to The Jeff Beck Group. Either way, I love them both.

TRUTH album
Its stuck with anther old vinyl (imagine from John Lennon) in my treasured collection
I agree Bud4207 - we need a DJ to give more airtime to these WORKS - a bit like J Peel when I was young or really free radios like Radio Caroline
Anyway me father only liked listening to tenor arias - he loved this song

Bring back the 60s 70s music any day, because the shit we got today does not even compare with stuff like this.
bud4207 4 years ago
u should specify. because popular music really does suck today, but there are some great indie artists out there. dont just generalize like that, at least give bands like the shins and bright eyes and the postal service their due credit, cuz their great bands today, just not popular bands.
ilovedingoandclancy 4 years ago
The bands you have listed are decent artistically, but when it comes to as musicians, they are rubbish. Even the greatest of the indie bands today have mediocre musical talent.
mugelerm 4 years ago
thats crazy. i dont know what the hell youre talking about, not in the slightest. tell me that conor oberst from bright eyes is not a sensational lyricist, and then tell me that the shins and wolfmother cant write a guitar riff. if u said that, youd be dead wrong.
ilovedingoandclancy 4 years ago
yes, artistically, meaning that some can write sensational lyrics or make good guitar riffs. a great musician is someone who can not only create, but someone who can also play his instrument vistuistically, that is, differently and better than anyone else he is similar to, and that's only part of it. too much for a youtube comment if you ask me :P
GoatmealPie 4 years ago
Goatmeal said it perfectly. And wolfmother is a decent band, and do have a decent guitar player, but still doesnt come near what the tip top was back in the day. All good musicians today seem to go towards metals and goth music and such, which i feel is simply an annoying group of music.
mugelerm 4 years ago
within 10 seconds of each wolfmother song i can tell whether they were listening to zep or sabbath before writing the song. they're so unoriginal it hurts.

what! mediocre! read some lyrics, listen to some guitar riffs of the shins. and, if u want a better example of a musically gifted current band, try radiohead. absolutely amazing. listen to the album OK computer, then say that no one today has amazing musical talent
ilovedingoandclancy 4 years ago
yeah but other than radiohead there isnt a lot of talent out there these days, i would recomend ok compuetr as well, arguably the greatest record of all time

with all due respect have you ever listened to the gods, led zep, deep purple, cream etc etc these legends would make you want to cry compared to the endless rotational garbage produced to please the ignorant masses currently....

Jeff Beck is my favourite Guitarist of all time. perhaps because he is " gay or bi " he allwayas lived in shades "
he's a virtuoso !
no honofofic comment here please .

Gay or bi? You are nuts. Even if he were, which he ain't, what would that have to do with anything? Go read about the guy.

Very good cover of the song-I like the visuals since the song is about nuclear war. If you want to hear the ABSOLUTE BEST cover of the song, check out the one by the Damnation of Adam Blessing. It is on their CD,"The Damnation of Adam Blessing" and is outstanding. They were a group from Cleveland, Ohio that played and recorded in the late 60's to early 70's.d Their rendition of "Morning Dew" is intense,with Adam Blessing delivering some powerful vocals.

Thanks for your comment and i will certainly look out for the cover you mention because if its better than this it must be good .
trichoone 4 years ago
Thanks for responding. Let me know if you're able to find it. Damnation should have made it big but didn't due to management conflicts. They have quite a following in Cleveland and played here recently. It was like being in a time warp-they were great!
